31:1 laptop - school ownedReason is the 3-year replacement cycle: 4,5,6 then 7,8,9 then 10, 11, 12
4 - 71:1 - family-ownedGrades 4 and 5 = family owned, but stays in school - check out for weekend -- so need carts for charging

Need charging areas, like in K.I.S. - they don't have carts, but made areas for charging with multi-taps, etc.

Accessories: External HD and laptop lock

Need to tast strength of network to handle video, etc. at one time

Professional Development
DescriptionTimelineStartup mode - work in grade level meetings, after school workshops, other strategies, some model classrooms with 1:1 -- trips to K.I.S. to learn more.AugustTransition to peer learning groups - hub for everything - research-proven; guides on the sidesPrepare teachers from August through December for 1:1Part of evaluation is receptiveness to learning environment - can't be blown off - must be active/proactive

Phase 1 = soft roll out = parent meetings, etc., what it looks like in the classrooms
Phase 2 = help our other teachers with the vision we are trying to build; grade level meetings; after-school workshops

From 0 to functional level = August to December
January 2010 - is most optimistic scenario with all equipment ready

January 2011 = Grades 6 and 7 = rollout in Jan.
February 2011 = Grade 4 and 5 = rollout in Feb.

March = 3rd grade carts 1:1

2 carts of laptops to be used in 5th grade then down to 3rd grade



Parent sessions
